i only want to express my feelings toward the thing that i loved, lived Metal..
i loved metal alot, and am listening for it for about 4-5 years, it becames a bestfriend.. lot of times i was going back to metal to solve my problems, when i am disturbed, when everybody left me, when i was alone, when i am angry, happy, sad, in love, in hate, in every moment Metal was my faithfull friend..
after any problem the best thing i've done is listening metal, on my first year on the university, i have NO friends else metal..
AND AFTER THAT ALL...!!!!!
i became so wiered about / with it ... i started to obtain alot of albums ... i now have more than 150 album, and hundreds of singles, i know a bit good amount of metal bands, at least in my country and between my friends, i am the most one who knows about metal bands and styles & countries (of course because of this great site) BUTTT..!!!!
actually there is a number of songs i've bought (from a while) and didn't listen yet, many things downloaded and never listened, always needs new stuff, and don't listen well for them, so weired..!!! the music became a less value to me, since i have alot alot stuff... event the good albums, i may not have the time to play them, or i don't play them without a reason, i don't know how do i act with the taste i used to b4... i feel that am listening for it as a habbit not coz i like it... i am searching alot for a band that i don't know, and that to fill up my time, but whithout satisfying results, seems like i know most of the (good) bands of the styles i liked..
even in the forum, i found it too hard to shoot a post.. i know i am not that active member, but i used to post better on the past...
what a problem, seems like i just want new stuff, and get bored from them just when i put my hands on them even if without listening ...
ppl say something please, i can't understand the situatution..!!!

Anything else, even silence. Don't be afraid to explore, as you can allways come back in terms of music.

Slow it down with what you're buying! I have times when I buy like 5 CDs in a day, but who doesn't? However, when I get in the car or sit down and draw something, wash dishes, WHATEVER- I listen to them. Just take your time and stop the madness, you can always get it later. Do that or....explore the possibility that you're not as into metal as you thought...

I've felt this way with Symphonic Black metal. There's very few bands who do it right, and as far as I have found there are none that do it like Limbonic Art or Dimmu Borgir [EDT, Stormblast, PEM, SPD]. Greatly disappoints me.

I don't really like 2008 stuffs except opeth and amon amarth. you can't compare it to years like 2006. but i'm sure 2009 will be the best year of decade.

Written by TheBigRossowski on 21.05.2008 at 17:57 Wise words my fellow metal-head! I've seen this many times in past 30+ years of being a metal fan and even experienced it myself. Take it slow - always quality over quantity. Find the genre or group of bands that you like and listen-revisit them often. Don't be afraid to listen to other kinds of music. This life is about self-discovery not self-invention. If you are a metal-head, then that is what you are.

Written by Numbskull on 17.06.2009 at 05:23 Exactly, which leads to the funniest part about certain other metalheads.They'Re fans of 50-100+ bands. However, in reality, they may only have 85 albums that they own, downloaded a thousand more, and only like ONE album from that band (given the length of certain Discographies)... but it's still a ''favorite'' of that person. Unfortunately, I am not a metalhead because I listen to a lot of gay shit as well, random classical music, Beethoven, Wagner, neo-classical (like Elend), 50s and 60s music, Johnny Cash, etc.  Is this a....uh, what day is this?

Written by TheBigRossowski on 18.06.2009 at 14:54 There's nothing gay on Classical music... Classical music is KVLT & TR00  Well... Like everyone else I listen to something else as some kind of rest after all metal. That would be Trip Hop like Portishead and also Björk. And a gret Noise/pop/trip-hop japanese artist under the name of Piana. The last one is fucking crazy at times with a lot of sounds and shit. more sickening that a lot of BM. And of course... Classical music. Soooo... I think there's powerful stuff if you just dare to explore

This happened to me as well... so I started looking for new stuff and got into Black metal. Every once in a while I have a crisis similar to the one you have. But I always accidentally stumble upon a band that just sweeps me of my feet, and reminds me what is metal all about. It's like love, when you're feeling lonely and down, someone new walks into your life when you least expect and changes it. It's the same with metal bands...this probably sounds stupid, nevermind, it's quite had to explain....

After Metal musically I prefer to listen to Noise, EBM, Ambient, Industrial, Oi! Punk, Classical, Romantic, Baroque, Celtic and Medieval music.. And also good stuff in Synthpop, Psychedelic Trance, Eurodance and Reggae.

Then just slow down with buying and maybe find old stuffs you didn't listen for a long time or as guys said there is few pretty good albums which just came out,just slow dawn a little bit and it will be ok.Hmm nothing after metal,at least i don't see myself listening something else,but you should fallow your feelings and feel happy and complete.Metal didn't say last words,it will be a lot of great albums in the future,and if you found yourself there you will always have something fresh and new,Just enjoy your time!

I know at last i will be a classic music fan , because i love classical music but now it's tedious for me , maybe when I'll be older

Well sounds like you got "The chase is better than the catch" syndrome (YEs it's a motorhead song but it explains some of the metal stuff). I sorta play "Find that band" and I have found a few due to it. Also you can get listening done if you're down to do a lot of work with your ipod. Any second you can spend with music on , do it. You could have undiscovered gems sitting with you if you haven't heard some of the stuff you have in your collection. I found I like industrial, trance, and punk. That all flowed in post listening into metal for a while. Trance is the same intensity but it throws you in a different direction, industrial has the same idea a lot of the time with having a bunch of stuff going on with the music and punk has the intensity down at times. The only thing this overall told me in retrospect is that I like music that's fast, lotsa notes and has some kind of dark intensity to it. I would say it's not about what is after metal but "What else do you like aside from metal?".

Like everyone else has said listen to something else. You're not betraying metal, like if its was your wife. Enjoy the pleasures of the flesh with other whores. I enjoy myself with Industrial rock, Classical, Filmscore music, sometimes sex pistols, alternative rock, etc. I always listen to Erik Satie when I'm a moond like yours to calm me down.

Written by Yasmine on 15.04.2011 at 17:47 I think that i don't understand what do you mean.... I do like some stuff beside metal but i dont consider metal as just another phase trough which i am going,but rather dominant type of music which i like....
